The following describes a government action that has been resolved by either a settlement or a decision by a court or administrative agency. If the matter is being appealed, it will be noted below.
On April 11, 2023, HIRO Systems Hawaii, LLC entered into an Order Section 13a Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act with the United States Environmental Protection Agency.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issued a legally binding stop sale order to Honolulu-based Hiro Systems Hawaii, LLC to prevent the illegal distribution and sale of misbranded and unregistered pesticide products, including disinfectants and sanitizers.
Under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), EPA ordered Hiro to immediately stop the sale, use, or removal of the pesticides HIRO Proprietary Blend Raw TEG, HOCL Hypo-Chlorus Acid Eco-Friendly Sanitization Solution by Hiro, HIROCL Hypochlorus Acid Sanitization Solution, Clean Republic Disinfectant + Sanitizer, and Side-Kik HOCL Generator products. These products were sold at the Hiro store at the Ala Moana Center in Honolulu.
Hiro has sold the unregistered and misbranded pesticides and devices to businesses and the public. Additionally, Hiro made false and misleading claims on their website and social media accounts about the misbranded and unregistered products’ intended uses, effectiveness, and toxicity.
Under the federal FIFRA law, products that claim to kill, destroy, prevent, or repel bacteria or viruses are considered pesticides. All such products distributed or sold in the United States are required to be registered by EPA to ensure they perform as intended and will not harm people, other species, or the environment when used as directed. Consumers who rely on ineffective products to disinfect may face an increased risk of exposure to bacteria or viruses.
